Very nice early 20^th Century matched pair of Lincoln book ends. Each one is marked on the back “JB 2440” over a copyright mark and “D.C. FRENCH” who was the artist.

The brown felt bottom of one still retains the company sticker of a gold “JB” on a black background and 90% of the original papers label stating that the bookends were designed by Daniel C. French.

Daniel C. French  was one of the most prolific and acclaimed American sculptors of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, is best known for his design of the monumental work, the statue of Abraham Lincoln (1920) in the Lincoln Memorial, Washington, DC.

Both are in nice matching condition and show only light wear. Pair weighs just over 10 lbs.  [ad]

Shipment via Priority Mail may require higher than normal shipping charge.
